Happy May day!

Hello loved ones! :) I apologize for the shortness of this email. We've had an awesome busy day participating and leading zone pday. It was a success though!! Yay.
This week will be expressed in pictures because of zone pday and I am uber tired. Haha. However Monday my momma was sent a picture from our bishop because we ate breakfast for dinner with chopsticks. It was so funny! Haha all because Sister Tryon mentioned having not used chopsticks in forever. It was so great!

We had tradeoff with the Whitehouse sisters. I was with Sister Thomas and she's AMAZING! Also it was her birthday Sunday, :) yay. She's such an incredible missionary and I just love her to pieces. Also their trailer was still adorable.

President Lee! We had MLC this week and it was so FUN! President Lee agreed to take a photo comparing the size of our hands. Haha I seriously love him! And I was so blessed to be at MLC I felt so lifted and inspired, the spirit is such a gift.

Pre-meeting amusement. Elder Head decided to walk down memory lane and discuss our plan ride here and the adventure that was.. I may have been a bit embarrassed but Sister Tryon was amused.

Tradeoff with the Fleming Island sisters. I spent the day with Sister Kirkham in Fleming. She's adorable and we had a blast. I learned a lot from her example.

Went shopping and got some cute fairy home stuff.. loved it! So sweet!! And now our home is double adorable! We also may or may not have invested in  some noisy putty. So funny, it just warms my heart. ;)
Anyways... I was struggling a bit.. but this week everything changed. I felt so lifted and inspired at our meetings this week and it helped. I also realized that to an extent happiness or misery is a choice. And the atonement is so real that regardless of our situation we can not only have peace but we can have joy. So I've decided to have joy everyday. And with the Lord it's been possible, I still have hard moments but internally I feel okay. Yay!
I love the Lord. I am so thankful for the atonement and it's power to help is change and repent. I'm so thankful for a God who loves me and answers my prayers. I love being a missionary and I love having this chance to serve. I love you!
Love always, Sister Bryans!
